Nathen Nino brings strikeout upside and swing-and-miss relief value to Pacific
Nino looks like a useful right-handed arm for Pacific because he already showed strikeout ability at multiple stops, including 24 strikeouts in 29.1 innings in 2025 after punching out 22 batters in 13.1 innings at Fresno City College in 2024.[1] His profile suggests a pitcher with some late-inning upside: he has a 6'1", 205-pound frame and has been used as both a starter and reliever, which points to flexibility, but the current public data does not yet show elite command or a dominant workload, so he projects more as a developmental strikeout piece than a finished product.[1]
